It's the blatant lie of Runescape's first skilling boss that got me


What the hell they declassified Big Game Hunter as?


Last I looked it was a BOSS with 90,000 lp and the boss animation HP bar requiring SKILLING in hunter, woodcutting, farming and maybe construction in order to complete the kill

Maybe the first group skilling boss but it's not the first skilling boss.

Extremely misleading headline.


BGH is not a boss of any kind. It is a hide and seek encounter. We aren't engaging the dinos in any fighting at all. Either we set a trap and kill them or they find us and kick us out. Playing hide and seek in Sorceress's Garden is also not fight skill bosses for the same reason.

Try not to showcase the toxicity of PVM community Dilbert please.

Dislike that it's group, I hope it's not abused like all other group content by elitist scumbags that ruin everything.. We'll see..


If you don't like grouping then just don't group. By no means group content showcases any toxicity, regardless they are pvm or pvp or pve grouping content.

BTW, most players who PUG don't care about toxicity. They mostly just do that for the rewards.

This is my issue as well, imagine how painful it must be for players trying to get achieves back with pug groups. I'd rather this boss be 1-2 man and have a hard mode.


Video game industry "issue" for all multiplayer games online games actually. That's why a lot of players only play single players games rather. It is really everybody's choice. :)

hey I want to believe!

I do, but... it was like 2 months before there was a group entry for rex matriarchs?

so this will work GREAT if the grouping system actually includes it on day one, and also has some settings to match like... not combat level 100, but tick boxes for... um...

one skill, two skills, three skills, all four skills needed to do this.

cause "learner" is now someone who only has the hunter level, but not all four, right? or whichever. if the grouping system is part of the update... we're gold.
I have quit rsof because moderator found comments about darklight bonus damage on demons "off topic" for wildy flash mobs full of demons

That's easily understandable because Rex Matriarchs are easily soloable even by subpar pvmers. Giant Mole is massable too but just to be realistic who are grouping for Giant Mole? :D

weird flex. uh... I took a new player this summer to mole ten times to unlock war hub, and you might notice how much is pushed at growing the game with new players using phones?

rex matriarch was the free portal at launch, but doing reaper with afforementioned new player... I think she had to walk the long way to get there the first time and that I couldnt teleport her with the grouping system? it was something awkward like that which is why I remember.

so yeah. BRAND new players. the ones that jagex is trying hard to get with the phone version of the game. they need it. thats who.

and I dont have phone, so I dont know, but I extrapolate from what I have read at forums that like... there is need for badge that says your friend is playing phone, because they cant im you the same as if they had a keyboard and playing from pc.

so... the phone players reallllllly need the grouping system to work at launch.

Maybe, I won't say every player think Giant Mole is easy. How about KBD then? Rarely any newbie need to group for KBD because of the super easy mechanics. Now that all the Rex Matriachs are just one trick ponies.
